Boot Server Security Policy
You must decide on a boot server security policy.
For organizational purposes, configuring a separate log file directory is
recommended, but not required. (For more information on
LOG_FILE_DIRECTORY, refer to Master Configuration Files on page A-2.)
File permissions should give the minimum access required and the account
used should have no other rights on the server.
The phone's server account needs to be able to add files to which it can write
in the log file directory and the root directory. It must also be able to list files
in all directories mentioned in the <MAC-address>.cfg file. All other files that
the phone needs to read, such as the application executable and the standard
configuration files, should be made read-only through file server file
permissions.
Deploying Phones From the Boot Server
You can successfully deploy SoundPoint IP and SoundStation IP phones from
one or more boot servers.
Polycom recommends allowing file uploads to the boot server where the security
environment permits. This allows event log files to be uploaded and changes made
by the phone user to the configuration (through the web server and local user
interface) and changes made to the directory to be backed up.
